[QUOTE="FishSticks, post: 49454, member: 2038"] Get your measurements, buy a used bow (I have Quest G5, does not need to be a Matthews or other ridiculously priced one) that fits those measurements, go to scheels and buy accessories - sight (recommend single pin slider HHA has one for about $100), 12-24 carbon arrows ($60 to $120, Scheels will make sure you get the right arrow for your draw weight and length), 100g field tips for practice, a block target and a pack of 3 broadheads. Type of broadhead is based on preference, you're new so you can get whatever you feel comfortable putting on without cutting yourself. Practice a bunch, try to work on form, join an archery club. A lot of the guys at the metro rec are very helpful when it comes to beginning shooters. Practicing with my bow is just as enjoyable as hunting with it, definitely helps relieve some stress. [/QUOTE]
